Patient's question:
I have a particularly itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can someone with a pituitary microadenoma breastfeed after giving birth?Doctor's answer:
When prolactin is too high, it can lead to lactation. If you don't have other symptoms, you can still breastfeed. However, if prolactin is too high, or if there is a sudden increase in the size of a pituitary microadenoma, it is recommended that you actively seek treatment and stop breastfeeding. You should decide whether to breastfeed based on the condition of your pituitary tumor after childbirth. This can allow for timely surgery. For example, with a transverse uterus, normal pregnancy and childbirth can still occur, but the likelihood of natural miscarriage and infertility is relatively high. Therefore, further treatment is needed to reduce the impact on pregnancy and childbirth.
